BORGATAPOKER'S OFFER:
BORGATAPOKER'S Promotions:
BP Gaming Entertainment, the U.S.-based entity that represents online gaming operator bwin.party, has a license in both Nevada and New Jersey. Borgata Poker represents bwin.party's partnership with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa for online poker.
BP Gaming's parent company, bwin.party, is the result of a merger between Austria-based sportsbook bwin and UK-based online poker site PartyGaming on March 31, 2011, which made it the world's largest publicly traded online gaming company. PartyPoker was once the No. 1 most-trafficked online poker site in the world, but its numbers understandably plummeted when it voluntarily shut its virtual doors to U.S. players following the passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act in 2006. However, the fact that they left the U.S. market, combined with a $105 million settlement they made with the U.S. government as part of a 'non-prosecution agreement' made it able to pursue gaming licenses in Nevada and New Jersey.
bwin.party has partnered with both MGM Resorts International and Boyd Entertainment on Oct. 31, 2011. The result was the eventual formation of BP Gaming Entertainment. MGM holds a 25% stake in that company, Boyd has 10%, and bwin.party owns the majority stake with the remaining 65%. The partnership will result in a network of poker clients skinned to reflect each company's various brands.
In the case of New Jersey online poker, bwin.party is working with two brands: Party and Borgata. Borgata Poker will have strong ties to and promotions with Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa, though it shares a player pool with PartyPoker.
